Seira hastily approached the crown 279f55fcc5 prince she had finally located 44d5f2fc19 and offered a greeting.d21ee84046e36868

“Yes, and what brings my dear cousin here to see me?”fcb4a28c702d6d60
With a slight 65d2110888 lift at the 8660008479 corner of her 2e33d2500b lips, Seira replied, bf347ceb43 “There’s something I’d fedbac7048 like to discuss… 886c0cb7af but it seems d2554d89e8 this isn’t the 1c699f8710 right place for 9bc6e2ef74 such a conversation.”7a5fbf95cf3f8e58

Leo settled himself 128174a7a4 on a bench bd5b8c1afb in the pavilion, ae2bda926d positioning Seira in ae39b30cb5 front of him.bf9039857c98389f

Leo’s previously composed voice now 2dae5ec042 had an eerie edge.c3436e4fd6f8adde
Leo Ignarium was a 94a29ae68e crown prince celebrated across bd7eb58329 the empire as a 1692b430f5 future wise ruler, praised 36a06e2969 for his fairness and 53ea76bde1 commitment to justice, welfare 872b0c75ee for the empire’s citizens, 3c3371ae65 and a compassionate, wise 209d87517d personality. Every aspect seemed 3df66d50f4 to point to 6f42708312 his destiny as a6d2a63b24 a noble king.8bd97605328914a0

Calmly, she answered, 736f089549 “It would’ve been 6d24433a34 harder not to c117c73a8b know. Your Highness wouldn’t 645d40be3a be at the 0b96460137 ballroom… the balcony 5e3254d3a6 was noisy. Process of elimination aa114650e5 left only the 7353ab16a9 garden.”c515c2efe041d375

With a hint e9d952b85d of annoyance, the 3215a799f8 prince crossed his 9be566c780 legs and questioned 4323fc2e1e her. Seira gave a slight smile.6cd6b8d6820a3dec

Seira was the daughter of 744da58ea2 Marquis Benden, a leading figure 66b7eb7986 among the prince’s supporters. One could even aae016dcb7 say they were 3910197720 on the same 171e09cc48 side, bound by faebc40108 blood.693179600e2b4fc8

The war had erupted 5bc88f766b over a strip of f3732597f5 land near the border. The Crown Prince 54b5c9ae8f would have preferred 5857c61089 for Dais to 16b03fe46b die there, even 5093b51052 if it meant 1c56817a36 the empire’s defeat.c606b019d81252cf
